BBC, 5/23/16:

Night Tube services to start in August


A date has been set for the launch of the Night Tube service - almost a year after it was first scheduled to begin.

London Mayor Sadiq Khan said the Central and Victoria lines will start on 19 August, with the Piccadilly, Jubilee and Northern lines following in the autumn.

Here is that story.

Countdown to a non-stop capital: London goes 24-hour


Im really excited that at last were going to have a night tube, says the mayor of London, Sadiq Khan. Until now, innumerable nights out in the capital have been brought to a premature end by the last train: after midnight, normally quick journeys become impossible odysseys.

MetroUK, 8/22:

Someone’s created new signs for Night Tube etiquette

 

The Night Tube arrived on the Central and Victoria lines weekend and overall it’s been a success.

 

But with the extra dose of people tanked up on alcohol and the higher-than-normal levels of people eating food on the tube there are calls for new etiquette rules.

 

Thankfully, the Night Tube Notices Team (not an official team or anything to do with London Underground or Transport for London whatsoever) has got our backs.

 

They’ve come up with some alternative signs to make sure everyone has a pleasant journey.
